    Something I cooked up

    Ok so as a few of you know I'm dealing with some medical stuff. Back pain, nerve damage in my hands, and I knee that should have been replaced years ago. The weight of my mag is becoming a real issue. Every inch of it is ULEed but I still lack the ability to hold it effectively. I've been looking for a vest with some good back support as my pack provides it and is nice. Was able to procure one. And I got a gas thru stock....

    Which was uncomfortable as I The weight of the tank is too much but I still like the feel of the back of the tank on my shoulder.

    So as I'm weird, screwed up in the head and have access to machinery I started to come up with a solution. It is in no way done and my lathe time got reprioritsed by management. So later this week...

    Its ALOT lighter then the tank, the back of it feels like a tank and let's face it... I find it awesome.

                  Had to take a double look. Pretty interesting.

                      Not the prettiest stock I've seen, but if it works for you.

                      Are you going to ano that gloss black to match the front of the stock?

                              steel piston or aluminium? you might try one out of a small 4 cylinder or maybe an outboard or lawn tractor. i have seen 2 inch diameter pistons but can't remember what thay came out of.

                                  Its an aluminum performance harley piston. And I wanted something about the same size as a tank butt

                                      Haha. Got a hand full of GSXR1000 pistons around. They weigh nothing

                                      Looks unique by the way.

                                          Unfortunately I did not. It was what was handy at the time. I do work on ALOT of gsxrs though.

                                              Want one? Really though. The size of yours looks better than a smaller thou piston though.

                                                  I was looking for around 4" around, like a tank

                                                  although if you have your engine apart I'll give ya a nice VJ
